    I just got 1.5-something from unstable. But the current version is 1.6b.
    This in particular is a big deal for me, because 1.6 is the first version to
    have the "delete mail from server after N days" option in the mail client.
    Without that, email just piles up on the server until my quota is exceeded,
    and incoming mail starts bouncing. So, I really do need 1.6, so I guess I
    have no choice but to install manually.
